"Mommy," halos pabulong kong tawag. Nagmamadali akong bumaba ng sasakyan, hindi ko na hinintay pa si Leif.Binuksan ko ang pintuan. They were sitting on the couch. Magkatabi si Canary at ang Daddy ni Leif, while Mom is on the opposite side. Napalingon sila sa akin nang magsalita ako, maliban kay Canary.Dahan-dahan akong naglakad palapit sa kanila. I could sense the tension inside the house. I feel like my chest is going to explode anytime soon. Nanlalamig ang mga kamay ko. Ni ayaw kong makita ang mukha ni Canary."What are you doing here?" Mr. Soldevilla asked. Kasunod ko na si Leif. I looked at him. He doesn't look apologetic but rathet he looks so mad and confused."How about you? What are you doing here?" baliktanong ni Leif. Naka
Tahimik ang loob ng sasakyan habang nilalakbay namin ang daan papunta sa bahay namin. Walang makapagsalita sa amin ni Leif. He is probably thinking the facts I told him.

Hindi ako mapakali habang hinihintay si Leif sa loob ng coffee shop. Ngayon na lang ulit kami magkikita, mula nang magkasagutan kami ni Canary sa lobby.Tuliro ang isip ko. Lalo akong hindi nakatulog. Hindi ko alam kung sino ang dapat kong kausapin. Hindi na ako makapag-isip nang matino. Sa totoo lang ay nawawalan na rin ako ng gana kumain.Wala akong mapagsabihan ng mga tumatakbo sa isip ko. Wala akong mapili na puwedeng pagkatiwalaan. Hindi ko masabi kay Lila na ako ang nasa picture. Ilang beses kong pina-confirm sa kanya kung totoo ba ang sinasabi niya.If that is the case, then Leif is my brother? Pero kung totoo ang sinabi niya na si Canary ang nasa picture, sila ang magkapatid? Iyon ba ang dahilan kung bakit bigla silang naging close?
